[Hawkular-dev] hosa status endpoint now secured behind openshift secret

[John Mazzitelli]

If you are deploying HOSA using its makefile and you are using HOSA's status endpoint (heiko :-) you might want to update your blogs on this), just a heads up that the /status endpoint is now secured behind credentials defined in an openshift secret. So if you point your browser to the new route, for example, you'll see it asks you for username/password now.

By default, the status endpoint is disabled, but the yaml our Makefile uses will enable it and put it behind a secret that is created for you. The credentials are fixed in the secret the makefile creates (see the config.yaml example file to know what they are - its the same credentials that are in the secret) but you are free to base64 encode your own credentials in a secret and use that.
